Knowing that Andres was returning to the manor today, Butler Tanner was waiting at the entrance bright and early.
After exchanging greetings, Andres asked, "How's my mother been lately?"
Butler Tanner replied, "Madam has been doing quite well, but..."
Andres noticed the uneasy look on Butler Tanner's face.
"What is it?"
After hesitating for a moment, Butler Tanner answered truthfully.
"We've had some guests at the manor recently. I don't know if Madam mentioned it to you privately."
Andres instinctively looked at Maeve.
Maeve just shrugged at him.
Her expression seemed to say, 'Why are you looking at me?'
'This is your family drama, it has nothing to do with me.'
"Warren, who are these guests?"
Ever since his father passed away, the manor rarely hosted outsiders.
Andres didn't want any irrelevant people disturbing his mother's peace.
Butler Tanner answered honestly.
"It's Madam's cousin from her maiden family."
"He arrived three days ago with his wife and daughter under the guise of a visit, and they've been staying here ever since."
Andres furrowed his brows slightly.
"My mother hasn't interacted with those relatives in years. Why is a cousin suddenly showing up?"
In Andres's memory, his mother rarely kept in touch with her parents' side of the family.
The reason was rather cliché.
Back then, when Sofia insisted on marrying Caden White, who was significantly older than her, her parents had fiercely opposed it.
The Sloan family hailed from Evergreen City, where they were somewhat renowned as a scholarly family.
Although Sofia's father was an educated intellectual, his mindset was deeply feudal.
